dismissed H-1B Case: Stone Manufacturing
Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the proffered position of 'Internal Auditor and Bookkeeper' qualifies as a specialty occupation. The AAO agreed with the Director's finding that the petitioner did not prove that the position's duties require a bachelor's degree in a specific specialty. The AAO also noted a separate, fatal defect: the petitioner failed to sign a required certification on the petition form.
